While at college for the school yearMegan misses a few things from her home state. She says "I miss that I don't have to drive far anywhere. Deleware is in a pretty good location, it is about 45 minutes from Baltimore and Philedelphia, and two hours from New York City and Washington D.C." Megan also misses "how flat it is because sometimes I feel sick after driving on the mountain roads here." A few other things that she misses is the variety of restaurants. "I also miss Tax-free shopping because I can never figure out how much something really costs here.

If you ever decide to travel to the state of Deleware, Megan recommends some of her favorite things to do. Some include going to the beach. "There is a Steeple chase, Point-to-point, in the beginning of May which is always fun. "In the Fall, a lot of people go to the U of D football games or high school football games." Megan also says that you should visit the Dover Air Force Base. " There are a lot of museums and historical places to tour. It also takes only an hour and a half to get from one end of the state to the other, so it dosen't take too long to see it all."
